Ooooh!!! Very well done Matt... and what a cracking picture you got of him too.

He sure would seem to be 'shy'... this is only the 5th picture to come into the Gallery over all these years!

Many thanks for showing him to us.

Thanks all for your comments. Unfortunately all birding trips are off due to the virus lockdown at the moment.
